Section Title:
Advanced Computer Control
Section Info:
This course provides foundation for modern computer control through progression from basic discrete time control theory to the more advanced control algorithms, enhanced by the elements of machine learning, which have been highly successful in applications. Exposure to the implementation of these algorithms on modern computing platforms will also be provided. The topics will include: state space and input-output models of discrete time systems; current computer control thinking and platforms; system-theoretic properties of discrete time systems; discrete time control fundamentals: pole placement design, observer design, output feedback, disturbance rejection, servo design; linear discrete time optimal control; robust discrete time (H∞) control for linear and nonlinear systems; discrete time polynomial design; discrete-time nonlinear filtering and control; model-predictive control with constraints; discrete time robust adaptive control (L1 and others); enhancement of discrete time controllers with computationally intensive elements of machine learning/artificial intelligence; introduction to field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and graphical processing units (GPUs) for solving computationally intensive control problems through individual projects. Prerequisite: advanced undergraduate standing. ME360 or equivalent is required. ME460 or ECE 486 is desirable.
Restriction(s):
Restricted to students with Junior or Senior class standing.
